  • ahhh .. sending me back through time

  • memories...............

  • en mis 25 años de vida como jugador habitual de videojuegos, jamás he visto una saga que me haya atrapado como esta. Los personajes, banda sonora, escenarios, voces y sobre todo el argumento es el mejor que he visto en toda mi vida. Pasan los años y por muchos juegos que sigan apareciendo con gráficos espectaculares, ninguno tendrá un hueco en mi memoria como sí lo tiene toda la saga LOK.

  • I love this track. And apparently Kain refused the sacrifice.

  • I hate when people compare the LoK to Twilight, LoK has something called a storyline awesome character design, a fantastic soundtrack, voice actors that bring the games alive and great map design, what has twilight got? sparkles.

  • @xXlittlemissemokidXx *Bro fist*

    Agreed.

  • Someone told me today that the Soul Reaver/ Blood Omen series, were as interesting as a box of termites. I raged so hard at that stupid bitch (she's a girl) and told her to go back to watching her sparkling little gay vampires. FFS, I'm a girl too, but I've been in LOOOOOVE with this series since grade school. Raziel is my favorite anti-hero of all time. He sort of reminds me of Spawn too... But Raziel is a 100000000000000000000+1% better!!!! A series, I'll always love, forever.

  • @PouresMaggie I love you. It annoys me when people moan about games they've never played.

  • Seriously, as soon as I heard Simon Templeman's voice in Mass Effect 2, I lost it. Legacy of Kain easily wins the title of Most Underrated game series ever. Story rocks and the voice acting is some of the best I ever heard.

  • @LoneDragoon90 I wouldn't say underrated, pretty famous at the time, only forgotten.

  • @Truechuser I suppose. Even CD (according to their facebook page) appear to have forgotten the game that made them a giant. If it wasn't for LOK, they would never have got their hands on Tomb Raider I don't think.

    Someone get Amy Hennig back from Naughty Dog? Pwetty Pwease?

  • Need some kind of closure on this game series :( how dare they leave it on a cliffhanger! It's been nearly 8 years...

  • They better bring back another game before someone gets cut.

  • This song has power...

  • This is epic beyond belief. This story blew my mind away when i was a kid. How freakin' amazing was the script, the VOICE ACTING, the visual design, the MUSIC? Legen... Wait for it... DARY!

  • this game must have been forged by a god some where because it is so amazing

  • I learned my first heavy English words through this game. I was 10 then.

  • raziel is not dead only resting in the reaver... best vampire games ever period. :D

  • gosh i love this *>*

  • kain refuse the sacrifice :D

  • with no hessitation i can safely say that this is or was the best game series ever..dont even need to go down to details right here(story, music, riddles, movement, secrets, dialoques and so on and on and on.. but surely people who have experienced this amazing saga are lucky in a way:) and yeh its a shame they dont release new material or even renew the existing one(moneymaker!!).. i think it will eventually come down for the fans to start creating new ones. i have some ideas already:P

  • @subsdancer - to be honest with you, as a fan as well, I have a quite different opinion. I' think that remaking LoK games may have some sense, in this I agree with you (but if they don't want to - don't force it on them - they surely have reasons and I'm sure they care about fans as well as money), but I'm afraid that the entire story has been told and everything that we fans need to know is already contained in all games, so making new games would be a failure IMO.

  • @lodziklocPL so what your telling me, is if they would release all the game saga in 1 box with all the episodes graphically imroved(not to much money or effort to be spent), then noone would buy it and they wouldnt make proffit.. id buy it outa respect:)

    ps: i hate collecting things..

  • @subsdancer - that's not what I meant. I'm sure that many people would buy LoK remakes if they are ever made, but will this be a profit? I doubt it. Some fans may be sceptical - some may say "why should I buy remakes while I have originals?", some people that don't know LoK games might get interested in them - in this, I agree with you. But I'm saying that Eidos doesn't have unlimited money and that LoK storyline is actually finished - I can't see anything new that can be added to the series.

  • @lodziklocPL - cool, cool.. nice discussion. u see i have always wandered how was the whole story through Mobiuses eyes. i think hes story was never told..

  • Ariel's voice is ruining the music.

  • @3BDRR7MAN The track is phenomenal but I actually like her voice in it...adds to it...that little bit that gives ya chills when you remember playing a game with such an epic story to it ya know? 

  • there is a soul reaver 3, but its called legacy of kain defiance

  • @skaters374 And technically Blood Omen 3. It is the meeting of both Blood Omen and Soul Reaver, both Kain's and Raziel's story, to an epic conclusion. That is how I viewed it anyways.

  • lordkane na16 of evony age2 here i love the game so muce is named a lot of my sdever naes after the caraters

  • A story beyond time...

    An adventure beyond belief...

    Epicness beyond rational thought...

    Awesomeness beyond...well, anything actually XD

  • soul reaver 3 will be cool, but not like deviance, for me the best game serie is legacy of kain soul reaver on dreamcast,

  • @ventiladordepeche There won't be a Soul Reaver 3 since Raziel was absorbed into the Reaver at the end of Defiance and reviving him would ruin the story (and fuck up the timeline). There was going to be a 6th game called Legacy of Kain: The Dark Prophecy, but it was cancelled 6 months into development in 2004. If they do make a 6th game it will likely be Blood Omen 3 or something else, but not Soul Reaver 3.

  • @DarthSanguine : why...everything is possible i mean,how knows that the history make a way that in the end raziel soul is free........no-one nos that.....nothing is impossible i think.

    sorry about my english

  • @AvatarRaziel92 his soul can't be set free until the Elder God is dead since Kain needs the Soul Reaver to kill it. after that maybe but it would only be in the ending and there won't likely be any games set after that as the true enemy would be dead.

  • @DarthSanguine in the end of lok defaince was the elder god still aliv but under the earth....and i think everith can be make^^

  • My older sister, who is 22, played this, she has all 3, and I got into them. There really isn't any more games like this. It's an epic strategy game. (:

  • @venom90513 Sorry to tell you, dude. There are 5 games in the series. Your probably forgetting Blood Omen, and Blood Omen 2.

  • @afterlifeavenger Auctually, my sister thought Blood Omen and Blood Omen 2 weren't good games, based on the gameplay, I only grew up the the other 3.

  • @venom90513 I feel I should point out that there are 5 Legacy of Kain games not 3 - Blood Omen, Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and Defiance.

  • @DarthSanguine Blah Blah Blah, Yes I know. T-T Like I said, I never EVER saw my sister play the Blood Omen games. I was talking about Soul reaver, if that makes sense. OKAY, Anything that isn't blood omen or blood omen 2 . Dx

  • Every time my friend mentions "Kain refused the sacrifice" line I have to make "BROOOOOOOM" sound lol

  • This game taught me 50% of the deep English words I know. :D

  • I wouldn't mind an HD Revamp of Blood Omen 1,2 and Soul Reaver 1,2 .Defiance was "meh" compared to SR 1 and 2 

  • They Should Bring Back The Series :)

  • the coolest thing is you can shift between realms but what happend to the power where raziel spins or something

  • whoever dislikes this video is a gay-shit n' booooooooooy

  • first series I could call a masterpiece

  • Loved the LoK series from SR 1 to 3. I remember playing soul reaver 1 when i was around 6-9 i played the game countlessly finishing it and the same with SR 2-3. Unfortunantly not so many games are made so amazing as the SR series.

  • @The1MiniShow I suppose you mean LoK: Defiance by saying SR 3? The story is not just based on the Soul Reaver games you know. It started with Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen, then Soul Reaver 1, then Blood Omen 2, then Soul Reaver 2 and finally Defiance. All in all there are 5 games ;)

  • @Fillask

    I never managed to get a copy of LoK blood omen 1 and 2 i started out with LoK : Soul Reaver and ended at Defaince and yes i do mean Defaince when i say SR 3. And yes i know that the series started out with Blood Omen. But thank you anyway for reminding me ;)

  • @The1MiniShow

    Blood Omen is on PSN for cheap. I still have my old CD I got from a local game shop back in '00. Great game, a lot more complex than the sequels which turned into more action style games, while BO has more of a old school Zelda feel.

    Have to say I liked the games less and less with each installment, not the story mind you (although it did get a bit convoluted by Blood Omen 2), but Defiance's attempt to make it a DMC combo style action game.

  • @NeoDMC Blood Omen 2 was an abomination that we shall never speak of again (so bad that in the timeline that you can see in SR2 that the events of Blood Omen 2 are mentioned in one line saying "Events of Blood Omen 2" lol) but Blood Omen 1 was amazing one of the first games I ever played and it blew me away, The voice acting, music and general theme of it was so perfectly gothic and just...perfect *sniffs*.

  • @Fillask I think a Soul Reaver 3 is in order. I've played all of the games you mentioned, but Raziel can't be gone forever, get him the hell out of that sword! Haha, or they should do a prequel where you control Raziel as a vampire up until where he gets his wings ripped off and he is thrown into the abyss. They could do that, and it'd be awesome to control vampiric Raziel. I love him as a wraith the most, but I'm just saying.

  • @Nexttimeillwin Here's some interesting stuffs: watch?v=gdNkRF_UJIU The actual site has been closed down, so I don't think that they'll be completing it. Still looks great though ;)

    I've now already posted 2 replies without any of em getting through due to links... rubbish youtube.. In any case, go to nosgoth.net and add "links.htm#Projects" behind the URL. There you'll find several fan based things.

  • LoK series was epic.

  • Kain refused the sacrifice for the greater good, and it was, if Kain martyred himself there would be no more vampires and the sequence of events portrayed in Blood Omen 1 would repeat themselves in a similar fashion

  • This track for some reason always makes me imagine Ariel & Raziel stod on a cliff looking down upon Nosgoth!

  • "You May Uncover Your Past But You Know Nothing Of It."-Kain grin

  • @marcus22greene I think you mean, "You may have uncovered your past but you know nothing of it."

  • The one thing that bothers me is that SR 2 is more story lined game and its linear,but other than that,epic story,gameplay,action and most of all that this series had provided me is: best gaming experience in my life,there is no better advanture/action game in the world than this...i wish there is 1 more sequel and im so sad that Tony Jay had passed away...he was a legend.RIP

  • SUCH AN EPIC SONG

  • SOUNDS LIKE JEAN MICHEL JARRE ON ACID!

  • Comment removed

  • why they abandoned the series??

  • @ShadowDancerr abandoned? they ended it perfectly with kain becoming whole and raziel becoming the soul reaver. though i would like another game.

  • @dstmt2 i wouldnt say perfectly id would have rather raziel to get some piece finally ny becoming kains lacky agen if they were to make anoter one i want raziel outta that damn sword

  • 2 ppl didn't play the game !

    this game is from heaven!

  • i played this when i was like 5-7 really improved my linguistic skills, saying shit like "i feel a sense of dread as my soul was flung into the abyssal flames"

  • @DemonBankai HAHA, I love you man! That is a major difference as opposed to shit computer games that come out nowadays like World of Warcrap which reduces vocabulary skills and intelligence in general.

  • @DemonBankai Hahahahaha, this Series was a major influence on my speaking abilities too, I had thought I was the only one; we MUST see this wonderful story make its return!

  • @DemonBankai Me too, but that just makes me look weird in front of others. XD

  • @DemonBankai Same Here Played It On the Dreamcast Very First Game i Ever Played :D

  • @DemonBankai Yeah pretty much the same with me. It also made me crave storyline in any game I play to this day.

  • @DemonBankai telling your third grade teacher that death would be a release from the travesty that is her class.

  • @DemonBankai everytime i hear Raziels Voice actor in a other game i instantly knows it!

    that's how awesome these games were in that age.

  • Legacy of Kain will always be one of the most influenting things in my entire life. I adore the story, the characters...everything! I am proud to be one of those, who are able to appreciate and adore it with everything. Since many, many years.

  • @Selviana You took the words right out of my mouth.

  • dam i like this music.. pumps me up.. esp. the final rise 4:09.. ... takes me back to the time i battled the super demons without the reaver.. yeahh

  • IF I CAN CHANGE ANYTHING IN LEGACY OF KAIN I WOULD CHANGE NOTHING !!!!!

  • i can play sr 2 on windows 7 :P

  • @LOKBLUDOM3N1 I love dmc but you can't compare it with final fantasy, and unfortunatly it is the same with LoK.

  • It always amazed me how me managed to keep that mask on. I could never do it when I tried with bathroom towels :j

  • @Hazzrine That's because u didn't evolve into something more.......devine.

  • @kjaoend don't you mean divine lol

  • This is Vampirism at its peak, this is the epitome of an intellectual game.

    This is The Legacy of Kain.

    This is Soul Reaver. \m/

  • they just don't make games like this

  • Damn we need more of these games.

  • @Swamptik Indeed we do my friend,indeed we do.

  • @Swamptik Lmfao, IKR? Most games now are FPS's. :L

  • I feel bad for the people who have not heard about this series. It has seriously been the best series of games that anyone has known, the storyline and everything is mind blowing. This series was ahead of it's time and I am thankful for being in the generation of discovering this beautiful series!

  • so yea they should definatly make a soul reaver for ps3 :D

  • @jesterass13

    i agree, there was a 6th in the works but the voice actor for the elder god and i think one other died, as well as other problems, i hope for it to happen, but i don't hold my breath :(

  • @xion3c well the games company have said they would like to revive the series some day, i hope that day is soon

  • Raziel

  • Maybe they will bring back Legacy of Kain one day. Just look at American Mcgee's Alice. Surely the sheer amount of LoK fans will attract someone's attention.

  • Guys i also wish there would be another game after Defiance but they wont be making a new one anymore. Why? Because Square enix has taken over Eidos shortly after the maker of the games announced a possible new title somewhere in 2008... it was in some interview of a game magazine, im not saying names cuz i dont remember, and got the info from a video here on yt. :)

  • @DesertDarky

    u mean for The Dark Prophecy ?

  • @raziel86a

    Idk, wasnt that supposed to be BloodOmen3?

  • They need one game (AND ONLY ONE) to finish off the series.

  • Hey you have the mp3 file for this?

  • I love the music in this game. Does anyone know what type of music it is?

  • @Jcm9991 Awesome music. That's the type it is.

  • @Jcm9991 soundtrack;d

  • Legacy of Kain is fucking awesome. When I first saw "Soul Reaver", as a trailer in Gex 3, it had turned me away from the game. I was little, and seeing the gore scared the hell out of me.

    Wish I had not been so scared when I was little, because then I would've discovered this great series much earlier.

  • Kain and all his legacy is awesome universe with deep story and awesome characters which all have their dark stories....i miss this lines i still hope someday they will make new one,that would be awesome,Kain and Raziel 4ever!!!

  • I hope it comes a third part,

    Raziel should be split again from the soul reaver,

    this game is just EPIC

  • @Phenix12345678901234 Defiance is the third game

    Legacy of Kain:Defiance it is indeed epic as a third game.U can play as Kain and Raziel and fight Raziel as Kain and fight Kain as Raziel

  • @MetalDude87100

    Not really... Defiance is the fifth game. The first two were the Blood Omen games... The 3rd and 4th were the two Soul Reavers... Then came Difeiance... But yes, its epic :]

  • @Gnabba

    looking at the history than yes but Blood Omen came out first then Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, blood omen 2 and Fefiance

    (thats by release date)

  • @StoopidSnot Yeah, 10 Minutes Later (Wikipedia :D) I recodnized it too^^

    Little mistake ;)

  • legacy of kain for ever, the best series i have ever played

  • the best series ever, and i fucking mean it

  • empeze el juego ayer y me kede en la pantalla d titulo como 15 minutos oyendo este tema, pure awesomeness : D

  • Legacy of Kain, a series worthy to be apart of any gamer's collection.

  • best intro music! by ariel saying that that just tells what the story is about ant its fucking awesome! whoo i love soul reaver ^^

  • The Story Of The Legacy Of Kain Series Is Unique.....Its Not Just One Game Its The Whole Series.Epic I Can Say......

  • @Fireknight555 Why Do You Write Like A Retard?\

  • In story,yes Soul Reaver is way superior.

    In combat and combos - Devil May Cry is superior.And every one who played both games knows that.

    Don't get me wrong,I love Raziel and Soul Reaver series,but to tell that DMC is garbage you sir are:

    A: Ignorant gamer

    b: Ignorant fanboy

  • Comment removed

  • Well I was talking with a friend and we think Jason Isaac's is a contender for Kain (certainly with his Malfoy Wig on) plus he does give good anti-hero/villain and he has a good voice so he's a possible, hopefully if there is a script it'll be fan written because after Twishite we need a good vampire film and LoK suits the role fine.

  • @Sephirothwolf

    or hugo weaving! they both could pull it off

  • A Movie would be good if they had someone who understood the story as director and decent actors and they'd have to make it a series not just one film. And they would need good voice actors

  • A movie would rock but I can't help but think that it'd be too straining for the average joe's brainpower... so hardly a box office hit, sadly.

    Maybe a TV series...

  • if you played all Legacy of kains in a row you understand the jole story and its fascinating a film would be great :-D

  • DMC is more action. LOK is more like story. But LOK's story is super uber twisted, since it was supposed to END on Soul Reaver ONE. So uhm, yeah both games are nice.

    A good movie (who has seen a good movie about a videogame? I didn't) would be wonderful, if they used similar soundtrack like this one, instead of just shoving it with death metal (which wouldn't be bad, but IMO would take off it's originality).

    Am I thinking too high?

  • the storyline ismore devine,yes

  • @dreamweaver60 again it's divine -_-

  • Id like to see a book series more then a movie series. In a movie series they would turn Kain into a goth emo pussy anyway.

  • A goth would be great for a vampire lord...Seen the fact goths honor old madievel styles (And NO its not all black)

    So in my opinion...A movie would be great.

  • @zeflyt The only book worth reading...

  • Comment removed

  • legacy of kain will always be better then devil may cry

    devil may cry is nothing compare to legacy of kain

    legacy of kain forever

  • @DARKLORD21ify Devil may cry is another genre, you just cant compare it, is like comparing kilometers with hotdogs

  • @girustrike Psh, hot dogs are so better than kilometers

  • @DARKLORD21ify You're... a complete moron. They're different genres. One's an adventure-based story-driven game. The other's a slash-'em-up that doesn't even pretend to have a decent/good story.

    You should probably die.

  • @vinguru896 FUCK YOU...MAN....GO FUCK YOURSELF.. legacy of kain is the best..GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE..BITCH

  • @DARKLORD21ify but u gotta admit if they are both in ur collection then they might be some of the best games in ur action/adventure collection

  • @DARKLORD21ify

    Devil May Cry's gameplay is vastly superior to Soul Reaver's but that is where it ends, in story, characters, VA and presentation it doesn't hold a candle to Soul Reaver.

  • @DeathtoRaiden1 Yeah the LoK series never had very good gameplay. A shame really, because I think a lot of the play-it-once-to-see-if-it's-go­od people would discover the great story and add to our fanbase. Not to mention the games would have had better press and a better budget. RIP LoK.

  • @crazy88boss I thought Soul Reaver had good gameplay. Not so much in Soul Reaver 2, though. But I came in knowing it had a good story and wanted to see firsthand.

  • @DARKLORD21ify No, Legacy of Kain+Devil May Cry >>>> twilight

  • @DARKLORD21ify

    Don't compare these two series-DMC is a slasher, LoK series is something beyond... There's nothing to comare-both series are great, but LoK is uniqe

  • @DARKLORD21ify

    Storywise yea. I like the gameplay and humour (heh well LoK doesn't really have humour) that DMC has. Besides, they are completely diffirent genres. DMC is more about action. Legacy of Kain about exploring and plot.

  • @DARKLORD21ify You got that right ! Sister. Simply no match ! VAE VICTUS

  • @DARKLORD21ify Although I agree that devil may cry is no were near as good as LOK:SR2 it still is a good game, but soul reaver has better music.

  • @DARKLORD21ify and you are so true with your opinion, my brother in crime *g*

  • @DARKLORD21ify i like two

  • @DARKLORD21ify so true

  • @DARKLORD21ify I lile both of them.

    DMC & LOK kill other shityy RPG games like GOd of War,Final Fantasy,Hearts ecc.

    But Devil May Cry & Legacy of Kain are the best of all of them.

  • @LOKBLUDOM3N dont mess with GOW you shit bastard, lol just kidding, I like the 3 series the most. BUT YOU CANT EVEN COMPARE THOSE GAMES TO LOK, just because they have no NOTHING to do with each other, one is about vampires, one s about demons, othe one is about ancient greek gods, etc. for me, the best is lok. IMMA HUGE FAN U KNOW

  • @DARKLORD21ify The LEGACY OF KAIN series is something i cant describe in words. well the only shit thing about the game are the graphics which in their time must be like HELL. the bottom line is that NO GAME & i mean NO GAME can take place in my heart higher than this..... I cant describe my feelings for the plot of this game in words..... this game series is SUPERNATURAL..IMMORTAL....A LEGEND. The only game that actually has a story to die for..NO GAME CAN REPLACE THIS CLASSICAL MASTERPIECE !

  • Comment removed

  • @TheLordOfDarknes1000 Except DMC has a better combat system, seriously saying it has nothing on LOK makes you sound like a fanboy with your head up your ass, give credit where it's due. And what do you mean even god of war, as if that game can even compare to LOK in any aspect except graphics.

  • @DeadEndScreamer when I said it has nothing on legacy of kain I ment in term of storyline and character. sure devil may cry has better combat system. but in term of storyline it SUCKS. Dante is not really a creative character if you really look closer

    sorry but legacy of kain is more creative then Devil may cry

  • @TheLordOfDarknes1000 I don't think DMC is trying to have a particularly inventive story since it focuses on action and gameplay, so I really don't think it's fair to compare the two. They're such different beasts altogether.

  • @SeraphimSwordmaster I know that But I was just reply to darklord that was it

    Legay of kain is more like equl to Metal gear solid games..or even like lord of the ring.

  • @TheLordOfDarknes1000 Well that's a no brainer, you don't need to look close to see that DMC story is shit even without comparing it to LOK. Still why compare LOK to a game that has no chance against it, it's like a famous story writer challenging a mentally retarded athlete to a story writing contest, there is no sense of victory when you win.

  • @DeadEndScreamer hey I am not the one who was compare between the two. I was just reply to darklord21ify and I see his point. that was all

    legacy of kain is more creative then devil may cry other action combat system. so I heard what you saying. to me legacy of kain is more epic like Metal gear solid games in my eyes.

    the death of raziel canght my tears as seeing snake old did

  • @TheLordOfDarknes1000 That guy's account is suspended, so there was no point in replying to his comment. At least Raziel's story came to a good conclusion without them whoring out the character, It's a shame they canceled LOK The Dark Prophecy back in 2004, now we'll never know what happened to Kain.

  • @DARKLORD21ify

    well you can't compare SR1 with DMC4, they don't even look alike.

    but I tinhk if we had a lok game for xbox or ps3 it would be better than dmc

  • @DARKLORD21ify Though I half agree, I do think that LoK is about equal to DMC. Not because of dialogue(WHAT CRAPPY DIALOGUE!) or story(Cliche.) but because of style.
